This isn’t the first time. And I’m reminded of scenes from 1984 where Wilson Winston is literally erasing history on behalf of “the party”.


You know, I did see a headline today that went something like this “Ain’t it weird how there’s been so few hurricanes this year?”.
(Never mind El Nino of course).


You didn’t give us much information to go on, but you should probably start by getting the most up to date version of yt-dlp. Also, I believe some time ago that it became a requirement to run another service in other to get youtube content… EJS it’s called.


Peertube is probably the most popular federated self-hosting video service available, although I’m not sure if it’s the best for you. Just a suggestion. It does have an app as well.


My uncle was an electrical engineer back in the day and our family would get hand-me-down PC’s, and every DOS game I ever played as a kid was pirated. I’m guessing my uncle would get them on BBS or something it’s that far back. I was 10 in 1993, and I remember struggling with Leisure Suit Larry (which, because one needed to type in English taught me a great deal! Including the “prove-you’re-an-adult quiz” to even get into it). I also remember thinking how easy Civilization 1 was but it turns out I was playing with a “trainer” the whole time and could just pump out units at near 0 cost 😄. But as a kid I didn’t know any better.
In 1996 I bought my own PC, AMD K2 200mhz, 3 GB HDD and who knows how many ram, but only a measly Matrox 2D card to begin with, and yep, even then a lot of the games were pirated, and a few years later, probably 1998 I got my first CD-rom drive which just made piracy even easier. A friend from school had a dad who would get pirated games, almost like it was linux distributions. Most of these CD-rom’s would be repackaged games without cutscenes but with custom installers with music. It’s how I got into Blümchen at the peak age of 15.
Then in 1999 I began going to a local computer club which was mostly a way to play LAN games with friends and share pirated stuff and use a faster dedicated internet connection. Oh and lots of LAN parties were if course had from around 1998 and onwards into the mid 00s, which is how I was introduced to anime like Rurouni Kenshin (aka Samurai X for y’all yanks (why?!)). And then home internet got good enough that one could pirate at home and LAN’s began falling off after the mid-00s.
As for consoles, I never pirated. I went from Sega Master System to Sega Game Gear (gifted to my brother and I from a German family that my parents were friends with) to Sony Playstation. And funnily enough I never played any pirated games on any of these consoles, but that’s also why I stuck with PC from there on afterwards, with the exception of a PS3 in 2011 which I never really played on…


IRC is still there. I still use it from time to time just to feel a rush :)
Damned shame I missed that alarm.
Don’t worry. If us humans showed up on Kepler-452b tomorrow and it had a breathable atmosphere, those lakes would probably be gone in a few hundred years.
I guess she never thought about how moon cycles work.
But also, one could’ve probably told her that the reason it was light was because they went up there during the day (which is technically true from the perspective of the moon).
One thing I hadn’t really thought of before was the reason as to why one side of the moon is always facing earth, aka tidal locking, so that was a fun read.
It’s so sad we’re burning coal and oil to generate heat and electricity for dumb shit like this.
